Gathering Information 1

Yunxi listened to Sheng Yuhong, tapping the armrest of her chair with her fingertips. After a long while, she said to Zhou Lingchuan:

"Take Old Ancestor Haoran's token to the City Lord's Mansion. Tell them that we will pay a visit tomorrow and ask the City Lord to spare the time to meet us."
